URGENT - Helpers needed in Limehouse this Saturday

Urgent message from our Youth Chair - Scott Vinnicombe

 
Hi all,
I have a great recruitment opportunity this weekend for our club at a school in Limehouse.

The school is having a open day event and want the rugby club to run some taster sessions to encourage the kids to take up rugby outside school. 

The taster sessions will run from 12-4 although an earlier finish might be arranged. 

If any of you can support me in running these taster sessions i'd very much appreciate the help and would be happy to treat you to a few beers afterwards. 

Please let me know if you can help out, even if it's just for an hour. 

If you need any other details let me know.

Thanks,
Scott

Saturday - Open from 6pm

Sign up for our O2Touch Tour to Bath and meet Jonny Wilkinson

Join The Intangibles AND Jonny Wilkinson Wearing The Rose at the O2 Touch Tour at The Rec, Bath 20th June.

This summer, the O2Touch Tour is hitting the road with England Rugby superstar Jonny Wilkinson.

O2, with the support of England Rugby, is putting on four O2Touch Tour events across the country. O2Touch tournaments, first-time taster sessions, England Rugby players, and plenty of fun and entertainment.

Millwall’s very own Touch team “The Intangibles” is invading the South West to explain, in no uncertain terms, that Bath is far too close to Wales to be taken seriously.

However, we would like to point out the Bath is a tremendously beautiful City and worth seeing in its own right. Not only that, the entire City is a World Heritage Site.

Bring family, friends and sit in a park all day long, enjoying views like this in guaranteed bright sunlight.

What are you waiting for?

Speak to me, Scott or email us at touch@millwallrugby.com

O2 Touch Rugby CANCELLED tonight

Due to unforseen circumstances, we've had to CANCEL the #O2Touch touch rugby session we had scheduled for this evening at 7pm.

Sorry for the short notice.  If you are already on your way, we understand the clubhouse will still be open tonight as usual, so you can still come along for a drink.

The next session will be our scheduled "Fast & Furious" session this Thursday at 7pm hosted by Darryl.
